This is for IC294 and Linda Billet was our inspiration site today. I wondered from her site over to her Etsy site and found this gorgeous and intricate frame with a floral bouquet. http://www.etsy.com/listing/62298233...e=13&ga_facet=
I decided to create an intricate die cut frame with Spellbinder Heart Circles and used two layers of the set. I combined the MS Double Heart PATP border to carry on the heart theme. I attached the largest circle with tiny pieces of mountint tape. When using my paper piercer to punch out all the little hearts from the dies I decided those would make a perfect heart shaped flowers for the bouquet. I punched additional pink, yellow and lavender using hearts using the smaller of the two dies as well as the border punch. The MS pine was attached using Glgossy Accents to create the foliage background for the floral spray. The different sized and colored hearts were arranged and attached with Glossy Accents as well. I thought the little pink bow was the perfect finishing touch for this project. This will be the card I send to my sister this week for her 64th birthday. I have tutorials on my blog that shows how I create floral sprays if you would like to check them out. http://kittiekraft.typepad.com/kittiekraft/
